SimplyNoise Creates Ambient Noise for Better Sleep

SimplyNoise is a site that can play a little ambient noise to either help you get to sleep or help you concentrate on your work if you tend to work in a silent room or office. The site also has mobile apps for the iPhone and Android.

If you have trouble sleeping when there's no ambient noise in the room, you may just have a restless mind, or you may suffer from a mild case of tinnitus and need a little help banishing the ambient ringing that's ever-present in your ears. Enter SimplyNoise, a site that can play a little ambient noise to either help you get to sleep or help you concentrate on your work if you tend to work in a silent room or office.

SimplyNoise, unlike other apps such as the White Noise mobile app, generates only three tones: white noise, pink noise, and brown noise. Each tone sounds like static at different pitches, but each is designed to help you rest easier, focus on a task and block out distractions, and even soothe migraines or stress. Best of all, if you don't want to keep your computer on and your browser up all night, SimplyNoise also has iPhone and Android apps you can take with you on the go or use with headphones at night.

The SimplyNoise Web site allows you to select white, pink, or brown noise and adjust the volume to the level you choose. It's pretty simple, and the site is really designed to give you a taste of what the mobile app has to offer, and to be opened in a tab and left running during the workday to help you focus or block out distractions like chatty coworkers or other office noise.

Both the mobile app and the Web app feature a sleep timer that you can set to automatically turn off when you think you'll be long asleep or no longer paying attention to the app. Both also include a volume oscillator with three speed settings. The SimplyNoise mobile apps are $0.99 US, and include all three noise tones as well as the ability to play pay-per-download mp3 soundscapes inside the app. You can purchase the soundscapes, like thunderstorms and other nature sounds. The mobile apps also support multitasking so they can run in the background while you use your smartphone for other tasks.

SimplyNoise also boasts that all of their soundscapes and noise tones are high-quality and engineered by a professional sound designer to ensure that they're perfect listening and you get the most benefit from them. If you're looking for a variety of nature sounds, White Noise puts more emphasis on environmental sounds like rainstorms, crickets, and ocean waves. If you're more interested in focus, blocking out ambient noise, and tones that can help soothe headaches and get you to sleep, SimplyNoise is worth a look. Back to top
